Hollywood has always been the source of inspiration for Indian cinema and it is not just in terms of storyline or technical standards but also the way actors prepare for their roles. One name often taken in this aspect is Tom Hanks.
He is more or less the Mr Perfectionist of Hollywood and each time he takes up a movie, he prepares for it intensely. One of his films was Cast Away and Tom shrunk his size into half through an intense weight loss program just to get the right look.
Now, the same has been repeated by an Indian actor. He is the raw hunk Randeep Hooda and this is for the film Sarabjit. Of course, our very own Vikram did it for the I but the way Randeep has shrunk from a muscular hunk to a lean and starved person is catching a lot of attention.
